abilities programmatically / directed from an early age. However, the fact is that the expertise of this assessment
is generally only owned by people / institutions in the field of therapy and inclusive education. Assessment is a
process of determining the results that have been achieved by several planned activities to support the
achievement of objectives (Arikunto & Jabar, 2008).

2. Literature Review
Down syndrome is a disorder that causes people to have various weaknesses such as physical (weak
muscles), health (disabilities and susceptibility to disease) and low IQ. Slow development is a major feature of
Down syndrome children (Mulia & Kristi, 2012).
In addition, people with Down syndrome have distinctive facial features, including folds at the corners,
slanted eyes that tend to point upwards, a flat nose, a face that looks like a snout, and a small mouth with a flat
palate so that their tongue sticks out a little (Rachmawati & Masykur, 2016).
This research was conducted inseparable from the results of previous studies that had been conducted. Based
on the results of research conducted by Christine Leontia and Nina Sevani entitled "Web for Early Detection of
Down Syndrome Retardation in Children". The application design focuses on determining the rate of retardation
in children, which consists of mild, moderate and severe retardation. Input is made in the form of user answers
regarding attitudes and behavior in children to determine the level of retardation in children, and the resulting
output is the level of retardation for children with Down syndrome, as well as suggestions for further treatment
for children with Down syndrome (Leonita & Sevani, 2015).
While in this research, the application design focuses on assessment, evaluation and development programs
for children with down syndrome (CDS). Through the AADS application, CDS parents can make CDS
development plans based on assessment by focus to the child development standards provided in the AADS
application. In addition, in each program, CDS parents are required to input daily notes as a realization of the
CDS development plan. For parents, the output generated from this application is in the form of a history of
planning and achievements of the CDS development program, while for administrators, the output produced is
in the form of information from all the planning and achievements of CDS development programs carried out
by CDS parents which can then be used as a reference for growth and development data of CDS.

3. Method

In developing assessment of children with Down syndrome application using an object-oriented approach and
a prototype model system development method. The prototype model used is as shown in Figure 1.
